CONT

Le but de [...] de l'industrie bactérienne est de développer des antibiotiques et vaccins innovants mais, aussi, à plus long terme, des classes d'agents antibactériens complètement nouvelles permettant de contourner les phénomènes de résistance. En effet, au lieu de tuer les bactéries comme le font les antibiotiques, ces nouveaux médicaments devraient atténuer le pouvoir pathogène des bactéries en ciblant leur facteur de virulence ou en jouant sur les molécules de communication intercellulaire.
